Young's Vineyard Wedding

More on the Rustic Italian Country Wedding....

Escort cards...customized note from the bride and groom written on postcards to each guest plus seating assignment in one!

Tent in the day...

Family style seating at kings tables with fantastic details....

We cheated and they cut their first slice of cake from the top tier...had to have the apricot layer!

This bride did not miss a detail. She even tied a cornflower blue ribbon to her pre-wedding flip flops.

My recap with the bride last night was fantastic. I don't think she could have been happier! Thanks to everyone: Kathy with Classic Party Rentals, Beth with Beth Sogaard Catering, Audre with Botanical Florals, Ashley with Ashley Forrette Photgraphy, Joe wih Extreme Pro DJ's.

Just the tent frame draped in burlap! Thanks Classic Party Rentals.

Kings tables in brown with burlap runners and cornflower blue accents. All the details are covered in this one!

Flowers by Audrey with Botanical Florals. Fantastic job! The wine boxes were filled with florals in a very country feel.

Sorry for the horrible picture, but the tent looked incredible at night with the market lights aglow.

Fantastic entertainment by Joe with Extreme Productions. This was our first time working together and I absolutely love this guy. He was a perfect fit for this wedding! The food was delicious and done by Beth Sogaard Catering.

Jillian and Chris
Hans Fahden Winery
Calistoga, California












Unparalleled beauty in the Napa Valley. Jillian and Chris's wedding was just stunning. The couple, the setting, the decor, and the amazing team of vendors all contributed to this perfect evening! The plans for this wedding began almost two years ago. Jillian got in touch with Cat while she was on vacation in Mexico. Jillian knew Cat was a fit for her when she heard she was working on her vacation. The search for the perfect setting filled with gardens and an enchanted feel. Check! Hans Fahden Winery. A florist to match the bride's unique vision and classy taste. Check! Blooms by Martha Andrews. The perfect caterer-All Seasons Catering, design and decor elements- Sharri Black and CMC Design, unique rentals- Classic Party Rentals, live swing/jazz music-Hale Baskin, live trio for the ceremony- Davis Ramey, and the photographer to capture it all-Allison Stahl. Check!

The entire wine cave had a golden glow. Not a detail was missed in this table setting for 100 guests. The bride and groom looked down all ends of the tables and each guest could see them at the head of the kings table. Guests were guided to their individually numbered seats that were each personalized with their name designed by Sara Hamm with Bella Vita Invitations.

Wow, Martha! I'd say we captured Jillian's look. Cups, or what looked like delicate floral bird nests, held small candles that made the entire cave twinkle. Mounds of flowers in purples and greens were a natural base for the gold tree branches that were draped in crystals, flowers, and candles.

A streamlined natural look was carried throughout. Purple, green, cream, and gold were used in each space from the ceremony, tea house cocktail space, dinner wine cave, and reception.

Enchanted reception decor! Dancing, live music, and toasts fell under the trees of this enchanted look. The room was draped in chocolate brown satin fabric from ceiling line to the floor. These drapes were pulled back for the fourth and final reveal. The guests had no idea this final space was hidden and only after dinner was it revealed.


Congrats to Jillian and Chris on their marriage and gorgeous wedding!
